It should also be noted for those that aren't familiar with the French/English debates, that there are about half a million (I think) Franco-Ontarians who identify as French-English but living outside Quebec. There are some regions where the French language and culture is very recognizable - I'm thinking of some of the northern towns like Sudbury, Timmins, Ottawa and there is a very high concentration of French in the Lafontaine/Penetanguishene area - French school, radio station etc. and in many homes only French is still spoken. For many French outside Quebec, the issues of separation are important to them because most have strong ties to Quebec through family, friends and history....and I should correct my spelling of tortierre...tourtierre...sorry. sammeiswife

They do have a right to protect their language and culture. To some, older generation, it was obvious that English Canada wanted to assimilate them and water down the French culture with unfair immigration laws. They wanted an English Quebec, or should I say a non French Quebec, they failed because us French can tell when someone is trying to fk with us. Too bad the younger generation doesn't see it for what it is. So now Canada has two official languages. Deal with it, the English drew first blood on this one.
I would really like to see numbers on how money is distributed across Canada. I don't think Quebec is the worst leech of the Canadian Confederacy.
The Acadians were easy prey, but not so much the Quebecois, heh
